A significant fuel leak has contaminated nearly 2.5 miles of the River Taff, prompting Public Health Wales to advise nearby residents to keep their windows and doors closed. The kerosene leak was first reported on Saturday, with authorities working to contain the pollution and investigate its source.

Natural Resources Wales has indicated that up to 25,000 liters of kerosene may have entered the river. Efforts are underway to collect water samples and mitigate the environmental impact, though experts warn that restoration could take years.
